quality apps and games that take advantage of the phone's unique features and design,"

great example of the kind of rich applications that people will find on Windows Phone
Marketplace to get the most out of their phone," he said.
"Zendesk for Windows Phone lets my team solve customer support requests at any time,
no matter where they are," said Mike McCarron, vice president of Customer Success,

Live Tiles means that I have immediate visibility into which ones need my immediate
attention."

for customer support agents to easily view, update and manage support requests anytime,
anywhere.
